Once there was a love
She was an angel sometimes
Sometimes she was the devil in white
It was always a big surprise
Once there was a love
She lived so far away
I would always count down the days
Till I'd see her from face to face
It isn't hard to get what you want
But do you know what it is you want
I believe that's the harder part
It isn't hard to get what you want
But do you know what you really want
That to me is the hardest part
Once there was a love
We would spend Sundays in the park
When she'd smile it would light up my heart
And I would just forget everything
Once there was a love
We had a long history
It would take years before we were free
Of the ties to each other's hearts
It isn't hard to get what you want
But do you know what it is you want
I believe that's the harder part
It isn't hard to get what you want
But do you know what you really want
That to me is the harder part
